This useful function automatically detects the position of the subject's anywhere in the photo frame and then adjusts the focus and optimizes the exposure for the detected position.The Pentax Optio S7's auto-tracking AF feature continuously focuses on subjects such as kids and pets that move around unpredictably. It smoothly captures movies at 30 fps at sizes up to 640 x 480 pixels with image quality rivaling camcorders. Since it employs the DivX movie format, the Pentax Optio S7 can record longer, high-quality movies.[/TAGS]
